Orange
Unveiling My True Colors
Lyrics
Flowers bloom
Flowers blooming, symbolizing growth and beauty.
Too many to count
An abundance of flowers, suggesting a multitude of experiences or emotions.
Where you're in my brain
The person is constantly on the speaker's mind.
Buried six feet down
Deep emotional pain or loss, metaphorically buried six feet down.
Tangerines
Tangerines affecting the speaker's taste, possibly representing a bittersweet experience.
They turn my lips sweet
The sweetness associated with the mentioned tangerines.
Wash your name from my tongue
Trying to forget the person, washing their name away.
Now I'm finally clean
Feeling cleansed or liberated after moving on.
You were the night clouding my skies
The person was a negative influence, clouding the speaker's happiness.
Watering down the tears from my eyes
Emotional pain being diluted or lessened through tears.
Using my pain as your disguise
The person used the speaker's pain to hide their true self.
Now I'm orange
The speaker now identifies with the color orange, symbolizing a personal transformation.
It was never yours
Rejecting any claim the person had on the speaker's identity or emotions.
The color of my soul, it feels so personal
The color orange represents the depth of the speaker's soul, emphasizing its personal nature.
Now I'm orange
Reiteration of the speaker's newfound identity with the color orange.
Is it something I do?
Questioning if the change in the speaker is caused by their actions.
Is it something I say?
Questioning if the change is related to something the speaker said.
Now I know that it's you
Realizing that the person is the cause of the speaker's transformation.
Making me think this way
The person manipulated the speaker's thoughts and emotions.
I'm waking up to watch the sunrise
Starting afresh, waking up to a new beginning symbolized by watching the sunrise.
Open the curtains, I am baptized
Symbolic baptism, a cleansing process for the speaker's soul.
I'm seeing me seeing you in a new light
Perceiving oneself and the other person in a new, enlightened way.
Now I'm orange
Reaffirmation of the speaker's identification with the color orange.
It was never yours
Emphasizing the personal nature of the speaker's soul color.
The color of my soul, it feels so personal
Reiteration of the speaker's identity transformation.
Now I'm orange
Reaffirming the association with the color orange.
I'm taking back what was always mine
Taking control of the speaker's identity and emotions.
I was hiding there the whole time
Realizing the speaker was always present, despite being hidden.
I'm taking back what was always mine
Asserting ownership and control over the speaker's emotions.
I was hiding there the whole time
Acknowledging the speaker's continuous presence, even if concealed.
Now I'm orange
Final confirmation of the speaker's new identity with the color orange.
It was never yours
Reiterating the rejection of the person's influence on the speaker's identity.
Now I'm orange
Emphasizing the speaker's transformed identity with the color orange.
It was never yours
Reiterating the rejection of the person's claim on the speaker's emotions.
The color of my soul, it feels so personal
Highlighting the personal nature of the speaker's soul color.
Now I'm orange
Final affirmation of the speaker's identification with the color orange.
I'm taking back what was always mine
Asserting control and reclaiming what belongs to the speaker emotionally.
I was hiding there the whole time
Acknowledging the speaker's presence, though previously concealed.
